I recently security tested my web application using Firefox browser and while pentesting my webapplication i noticed safebrowsing.google.com,while i diged more about it ,i could able to retreive only the following information :

My test environment is as follows :
browser : firefox version 38 with no addons
pentesting tool : zapproxy of owsap
